199

This morning was my 199th commute of the year and 200 is in sight. I just had to tell somebody! When I passed 100 in late June I knew I had a shot at 200 this year.

I lost a bunch of wieght 3 years ago and took up biking to help keep it off. I made a few commutes (5 miles each way) that year but it wasn't till the next year I set up a reliable bike and became a fair weather commuter and hit 135 commutes. Last year I added lights and fenders and made 165 commutes. This year I added a winter bike with studded tires and a decent light. I only drive in heavy rain, below - 5 F or if I have to drive for work. We had a real mild winter last year and so far this year. I've yet to be late for work as my 3 flats have all come on the trip home. When I do have to drive it seems like an incomplete day.

How's everone else doing on thir goal?
